When the Doctor

They are an all Havana smoke, but not all Havana
cigars are heavy.. Moja is long on quality and short on

have an incomparable aroma.

SATtjRDAY EVENING,
MOLTZ ACQUITTED
OF MMISLAUGHTER
Manslaughter Charges Against
Young Chauffeur and William
£. Wilson Tried Today
Both Theodore H. Moltz and Wil
liam E. Wilson were acquitted thin af
ternoon by a Dauphin county criminal
jury of the charges of involuntary
manslaughter.
Attorney W. H. Musser, who repre
sented Wilson, asked that his client's
case be taken out of the Jury's hands
before the court changed it Inasmuch
as Wilson was not at the wheel of the
motor car when the accld«nt occurred.
This the court refused to do.
The trial of Moltz and Wilson grew
out of the killing by the Wilson car
last year of 12-year-old Christian
Snavely, near the Rockville bridge.
Moltz was driving. In the car were
Mrs. Wilson and her daughter. Miss
Margaret Wilson and they sat with
the defendants throughout the morn
ing. Judge McCarrell, who tried the
case gave the problem Into the hands
of the Jury shortly after the noon
hour.
I The question upon which the de
fense through Senator E. E. Beidle
man argued, mostly was on the speed
of the car. It was moving ten miles
an hour the defense contended. The
Commonwealth declared that it was
moving from 30 to 35 miles an hour
and that Insufficient warning had
been given the boy at its approach.
Albert Emrnenhelser and his
mother, Mrs. Margaret Emmenheiser
were acquitted of the charge of steal
ing furniture and other household
effects from Miss Lulu Clark. George
W. Fetrow was acquitted of a larceny
charge in one case and pleaded guilty
in another with E. M. Hoover. The
pair stole a basket from the Verbeke
street market which they thought
contained eggs and upon investigation
revealed—dried apples.
John Canning who was charged
with having forged an $8.50 check on
Samuel Heller was on trial in No. 1
court room nearly all morning. His
defense was that he isnt of sufficient
mental balance to write or pass a
forged check.

Annapolis, Md., June 19.—Testifying before the court of Inquiry in session
here for the purpose of getting at the bottom of the systematic use by cadeta
of the Naval Academy of unfair means in passing their recitations and exam

that efforts had been made to steal the examination papers in at least four
important subjects previous to the last annual tests. The investigation which
was ordered by Secretary Daniels is being conducted by Captain Ridley McLean,

PICNIC DIKING
CONCEALS DICER
Dr. Dixon Gives Some Plain Hints
in Regards to Providing
Food as Well as Water
Dr. Samuel G. Dixon, state com
missioner of health, has issued a
warning that people should be just
as careful of what they drink while
on a picnic as to what they eat. He
points out the dangers of drinking
water which might be contaminated
and calls on people to protect them
selves and their children.
The commissioner says:
The picnic season has begun. Every
alluring spot for miles around in the
I vicinity of the towns and cities will
Ibe the Mecca for pleasure seekers
from now until the frost comes.
Almost everybody attends a picnic j
sometime during the season. Now'
that the automobile has made even
the remote districts readily accessible!
for city dwellers, the number of ur-j
ban residents who seek an occasion
al day's relaxation in the country, has
tremendously Increased.
Nobody thinks of going on a picnic
without taking a generous supply of
food but few people are far-sighted
enough to carry their drinking water.
Some spring, brook, or farmer's well
they feel, will be sure to supply this
essential. As a result of this indis
criminate dependence upon unfamil
iar sources of water supply, there are
hundreds of pleasure seekers, who
contract typhoid fever every season.
That period of the year when ty
phoid fever is always most prevalent
is that at the end and Immediately
following the vacation season. While
this is not alone the result of picnics
they unquestionably play an import
ant part in this annual toll of illness
and death.
It is not a difficult matter if one
!s taking an auto trip to carry a sup
ply of drinking water from a source
that is known to be uncontaminated.
Moderate priced vacuum bottles or
other forms of containers can be se
sured which will keep the water cool.
If a local water supply, with which
one is unfamiliar, must be used boil
ing the water for 20 minutes will
make it safe. Unfortunately clear
water Is by no means always pure
water. Many a sparkling, crystal
clear, roadside spring Is open to pollu
tion and no matter how attractive the
little brooklet which habbles along
under the overhanging trees may ap
pear, one must needs follow It to Its
source to he certain that It is free
from contamination. So for safety's
sake carry your drinking water in the
picnic basket.
Valley from Indians now at war.
A detachment of nearly 10,000
troops sent to the Yaqul valley yester
day, It is said, was dispatched primar
ily to protect settlers and their crops
from the Indians, but they had orders
to resist any landing of American mili
tary forces.
